After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Watching Him Die with My Own Eyes Yun Shifei returned hand immediately opened her wardrobe to find clothes, wanting to see what she should wear.

By now, her wardrobe was already stuffed with colorful outfits.

Yun Tiancheng had bought her quite a lot before, plus, she would occasionally buy clothes she liked when she went out.

Since she wasn't planning to play any thrilling rides at the amusement park tomorrow, how about wearing a skirt? Yun Shifei picked out a wool coat, paired it with a pleated skirt, and short boots.

This combination should be foolproof.

After deciding what to wear tomorrow, Yun Shifei flopped onto the bed. Tomorrow is Christmas; does this count as a date for them? Clearly, she had spent day after day with Cheng Lie before, playing around without any particular feelings. But now, because she suddenly realized she liked Cheng Lie, everything felt different.

Just as she finished tidying up, the phone rang.

"Feifei, tomorrow's Christmas. Are you planning to go on a date with your crush?" Xu Yuejiao's teasing voice cthrough the receiver.

Yun Shifei almost wanted to hang up the phone.

"Sister Jiaojiao, stop making fun of me." "I'm not making fun of you. I'm just reminding you. If you truly like him, take tomorrow's opportunity! Go out and have fun, dress up nicely, and make sure you look different from how you do in those school uniforms. Do you have makeup? Actually, you don't need it. With your natural beauty, your face looks better than others even without makeup. Remember to wear a pretty little dress! And don't stay out overnight..." Xu Yuejiao rambled on endlessly, leaving Yun Shifei feeling completely dazed on the other end of the call. She couldn't get a word in edgewise for a moment.

She realized that Sister Jiaojiao could really talk; she was like a one-woman show, not needing anyone to chin.

Eventually, though, Xu Yuejiao still pulled Yun Shifei into the conversation.

"Okay, I'm done. Make sure you follow what I said, Feifei. Honestly, if you confess first, no guy could ever say no to you! Just take your sister's advice for once!" Yun Shifei: "...But he might not understand." "Not understand? What do you mean?" Xu Yuejiao frowned, thinking Yun Shifei might plan ssubtle, reserved way to confess.

"He has autism..." Yun Shifei said softly.

"No! I can't agree to this relationship!" Xu Yuejiao, who had just been giving Yun Shifei advice, now felt she had to firmly oppose it.

A guy with a condition like that, no matter how good-looking or wealthy he was, didn't seem worthy of her beloved little sister.

It all made sense now-why Yun Shifei had been so hesitant and evasive when questioned by her the other day. It was because of this.

If she had to choose, whether Xu Yi's boyfriend, a delinquent, was better, or this autistic boy Yun Shifei liked, honestly, she'd rather the guy be a delinquent.

Someone with autism-truthfully, communication would always be an issue in the future. Her little sister would undoubtedly suffer a lot.

Listening to Xu Yuejiao's outburst, Yun Shifei frowned and hung up the phone.

Xu Yuejiao's loud voice had practically startled her.

But, she didn't care what others said. She wasn't just seventeen years old anymore. If she had already made a decision, it meant she had weighed the pros and cons long ago.

She wouldn't agonize over whether she could like him anymore.

Yun Shifei was still planning to meet Cheng Lie tomorrow as planned.

But the next day, when she went to find Cheng Lie, she happened to see Zhao Haishuang and Cheng Huai coming out of the house.

Zhao Haishuang was supporting Cheng Huai as he got into the car. When she spotted Yun Shifei, she greeted her. Zhao Haishuang wore a mask and sunglasses, along with a wide-brimmed hat, leaving her completely covered up. Yun Shifei couldn't make out her face.

But Cheng Huai's appearance shocked her.

It seemed like she hadn't seen Cheng Huai in a long time. Now, Cheng Huai no longer looked greasy; he had lost a significant amount of weight, his complexion pale, as if he were gravely ill.

"I heard you're going out with Xiao Lie? Perfect timing. I'm taking Ah Huai to the hospital. You go have fun with Xiao Lie," Zhao Haishuang said to Yun Shifei, instructing a servant to call Cheng Lie downstairs at the stime.

After Zhao Haishuang and Cheng Huai left, Yun Shifei still hadn't recovered from what she'd just seen.

Cheng Huai's appearance just now reminded her of his final fate in her previous life.

He died.

From a severe illness-leukemia or something similar-requiring a bone marrow transplant.

In her memory, his illness hadn't been diagnosed yet, not now.

But it was close.

During that period, Cheng Guomin had plans to take Cheng Lie abroad for treatment. Afterward, Cheng Lie recovered quickly and left the Cheng Family.

By the tCheng Huai's condition required a bone marrow transplant, they sought out Cheng Lie, who refused. Meanwhile, Cheng Guomin was reported for bribery and sent to prison, while the Cheng Family's assets were devoured by competitors...

All of this would happen in the next six months or so.

Tpassed so quickly that she felt disoriented.

When Cheng Lie cout of the house, he saw Yun Shifei standing dazed at the door.

The girl wore a short red wool coat today, paired with a black pleated skirt and black short boots, which made her legs look long and straight-like a beautiful character out of an anime.

The wind lifted her hair, blowing it to the side in a slightly messy way. Yet, deeb she seemed so deep in thought that she didn't even reach up to smooth it.

Cheng Lie walked up to her, and only then did Yun Shifei's gaze gradually return to focus, snapping back to reality.

Upon seeing Cheng Lie, Yun Shifei smiled at him. "Cheng Lie, morning. Let's go." Inside, her emotions were a tangled mess. That feeling of watching the future slowly unfold while being powerless to change it—it was really strange.

Even though Cheng Huai was so detestable, watching him die with her own eyes...

Still, she couldn't change anything.

This dampened the joyful mood she originally had about going to the amusement park with Cheng Lie.

Sigh. So what if she was happy now? Sooner or later, they would part ways.

When Cheng Lie got better, he probably wouldn't even remember someone like her anymore.

As the car drove steadily down the road, Cheng Lie could sense the heavy thoughts weighing on Yun Shifei. Yesterday, she was so happy when they talked about going out to play. Why was she like this today? Cheng Lie couldn't figure it out.

However, once they reached the amusement park and saw the fun rides, Yun Shifei beccheerful again. She pulled Cheng Lie along: "Let's take the little train first, okay? See if there's anything fun." Timid as she was, she only chose completely non-thrilling rides.

The most daring ride she attempted was the pirate ship, but even them, she insisted on sitting in the middle-the least thrilling spot-with Cheng Lie. Still, after getting off, Yun Shifei's legs felt weak.

She bought scotton candy, nibbling on it as she told Cheng bie, meto "That scaredto death: I don't ever want to ride anything that thrilling again." As she spoke, she noticed Cheng Lie's gaze fixed on the roller coaster up ahead, where screams echoed nonstop.

Yun Shifei: "..." She began to doubt whether taking Cheng Lie to the amusement park was a good idea after all.
